"Here's your new Mustangs, boys. You can learn to fly'em on the way to the target. Cheers!"
The new solex has arrived! It sports a somewhat used look, but apart from that and a rotten gasket, it's a mighty fine moped. The engine sounds great and will probably sound a lot better when equipped with a high end Chinese gasket.
And it isn't even red: Considering the shape it's in, it would be a shame to go totally scavenge on it and leave it to rust. So the orange newbie might as well be our future project. Distant future project.
Giant Centipedes is a reckless Copenhagen-based moped touring gang grinding neighbouring countries in great fumes of two-stroke oil. They ride French VéloSoleX 5000's from '71 - friction driven mopeds with the engines placed on the front wheel.
In '08 Giant Centipedes made it to Stockholm and Oslo, in '09 to Krakow, Berlin and back. In '10 their plan is to ride the French machines 'round Iceland.
